The EU’s Opening Bid to Avoid Trump’s Tariffs

“European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is suggesting that one way to deter President-elect Donald Trump from imposing new tariffs is for Europe to buy more liquefied natural gas from America,” Politico reports.

“During his election campaign, the real estate mogul vowed to bring back jobs to the United States and impose across-the-board duties of up to 20 percent on American imports. Brussels has been revving up to strike back fast and hard against any Trump tariffs to bring the Republican back to the negotiating table and hammer out a deal.”
